Acar dealer recently sold five cars for the following profits: $10,126, $9,999, $12,398, $12,007, and $4,567. what was the mean for the profits of the sales?

$9819.4  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a car dealer recently sold five cars for the following profits: $10,126, $9,999, $12,398, $12,007, and $4,567. We are asked to find the mean for the profits of the sales.

Since mean is the average of numbers. So let us add all the profits and divide the sum of profits by number of cars.

Therefore, the mean for the profits of sales is $9819.4.

x -

median = 1.25

range = 12-14.5

interquartile = q12-q14.5

y -

median = 1

range = 15-17

interquartile = q15-q17

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places
